By Hannah Gard and Monica Garrett, CNN 1 hr ago
The US will likely be hit by the first tropical system of the season by the end of this week, bringing nearly a foot of rain to parts of an already drenched South.
The system is currently stationed over over the Bay of Campeche in the Gulf of Mexico and southern Mexico as a collection of disorganized showers and thunderstorms.
The National Hurricane Center (NHC) puts the chance of tropical development within the next 48 hours at 70%, and a 90% chance within the next five days in the Gulf.
(snip)
Current model guidance is indicating that the storm will track toward the western Gulf Coast, near Texas and Louisiana. There is considerable uncertainty in the tracks, but if this scenario play out, areas vulnerable to flooding could see the greatest impacts of the system.

It's too bad that storm isn't hitting the west coast where the rain is desperately needed.
